Even if you manage to keep your VPS clean as a whistle of offending logs, your VPS host can log all incoming IP addresses.

I think this is a great idea but very difficult to safely implement.

there was bunch of people reporting that the power button doesn’t work to lock the phone anymore…

Allow me to introduce you to my favourite app…

It’s front and centre on my home screen. Just so handy.

If you can, I would upgrade just for the security updates.

In five years once this RAM nonsense is over you’ll be able to run a comparatively high quality local LLM for very little money. I can’t see how these companies will ever make their money back.

Wow. I never heard about that one. I do recall some distributed community attempt at breaking (I think) 64 bit DES around that time. It used spare CPU cycles and I had it running on my Pentium 2 machine.

Was DES still widely used at that point do you recall? I had AES in my head for SSL and the like.

Yeah, I went on holidays to the US and got the 128 bit plugin for what was probably Netscape (the precursor to Firefox) and it was very clear during the download process that it wasn’t to be taken outside the US. It was considered a weapon if memory serves me.

Anyway not long after the rest of the world caught up and it looked silly in hindsight so here we are.

Edit: just to add some context on the “weapon” thing… The other standard was either 56 or 64 bit and it was secure enough at the time given compute capabilities but it was also clear that it would be crackable in time whereas 128 bit has a very long shelf life even with modern capabilities, as long as the algorithm was good (and it was / is)

Reminds me of the US trying to prevent the rest of the world getting 128 bit encryption back in the 90s.

Some of the larger disposables do have a charging port. I guess it allows them ship a smaller battery which is good

Mad Max 2. It’s a good one.

Someone decompiled it and there’s now versions of it available on the play store and other places. It is a real blast from the past.

Ireland has Gaelic football too so you have to figure out from context which football is being referred to.

We even play against the Aussies at a mix of the two football types occasionally which is called international rules.

Their lads are fucking massive as they play it professionally while Gaelic football is strictly amateur (all the money gets pumped back into local clubs which generally end up being very nice as a result).

It must be the 1% of the 1% of many fanbases.

Whenever Ireland are in a world cup, people start saving from the qualifiers so the rich are definitely there but it’s die hard footie fans that make up the bulk traveling.

It’s hard to overestimate just how much some people love the beautiful game. I remember the 2002 world cup which was in Korea / Japan and myself and my mates were getting up at unholy hours to watch all while murdering beers and screaming at the TV and I’m not even that into football.

leaving it behind isn’t as easy as they say it is.

He very much feels like Goebbels / Himmler to me. Amazes me that he feels straight up in the right but I guess they both did too.

That’s surprisingly decent. Fair play to them.

I can’t think of a single job it can replace.

Me either and I don’t think it ever will reach that. We’re already seeing diminishing returns.

The thing is it doesn’t need to replace a full job. If it improves productivity by 10% then that’s the number that will either lose their job or just not get hired in the first place.

I’m sure these are very worrying times for folks in college, especially computer science and the arts.

UBI seems like the only long term solution to me.

Agreed. He should have stepped out of the race long before then. Hubris.

I’ll do it for $599,999.

Definitely wasteful to convert. I’m guessing the hydrogen is a store for when waves aren’t wavey.

I agree with the medical misogyny part but the hand washing nurses part is incorrect AFAIK. They weren’t washing their hands either but the doctors were working on cadavers and so more riddled with nasty bacteria.

Women giving birth in the street had higher survival rates than either of the two hospitals in question which is fucking wild.

Half arsed history does a really great episode on it. Episode 91. Highly recommended.

Even after Semmelweis forced everyone to wash their hands and proved how life saving it was, he got enormous pushback for the notion that doctors could be killing their patients. Arrogance costing lives.
